I have literally walked maybe twice that distance crossing the city central area of London at 4 AM (at time when there’s no Tube and just a handful of night buses once every half an hour or so and only for a few bus lines) coming from a night out and it took me a bit over 1h and I was drunk.
Mind you, in cities in Europe you actually have proper sidewalks, even in suburban areas, so maybe the previous poster had not such conditions to just do it by walking. Also it was only the way back - the way in was done far earlier in the day when all public transportation was active.
Anyways, the point being that even 2.8 miles is easilly a walkable distance, even drunk, as long as you have and hour or so to spare.
9 hours? Jeez.
Though, for 2.8 miles I wouldn’t even consider a bus. I’ll grab my bicycle and be there in 12 minutes.
You’d probably die twice there
Get there and die twice? That’s a bit extreme
True, totally doable and several people did so. There was even a bike rack installed on the premises.
